Lights flickered through, and I just settled for watching the view of Midnight, which was always brighter and livelier at dusk until daybreak.
The city never sleeps.
"How was riding with Athena?"
It was unusual for Ares to be the first to strike up a conversation; well, it was given because he hadn't stopped staring since we left the estate. I blocked him out, but now I can't do that anymore.
I pushed my glasses to the bridge of my nose as I replied. "There are no words to describe it."
That was not a lie, and it was my best chance of stopping him from asking more about it.
Another silence took over the car until we arrived at the penthouse. I came down and slammed the door shut, pausing when I realized Ares was yet to move. Maybe he's off to his private business. I huffed, strolling through the entrance.
When I got inside, I went straight to my room and quickly dialed Granny's number.
"Hello, Pumpkin."
"Gramps? What are you doing with Granny's phone?"
"She's sleeping."
